I have added the user name of each of the people who need to access the Linux box to the system but have not added passwords as the passwords on the Windows Server are required to change quite often.
Attempting to manage a password database on the Linux box is to be avoided if at all possible. Samba version is 3. Samba's testparm command returns no errors.
I have always restarted the Samba server after making changes to the Samba configuration. The Samba share IS seen by the Windows domain and is actually accessible from a Windows administrator session. Currently, domain security in Samba does not free you from having to create local UNIX users to represent the users attaching to your server.
Windows has a special quirk in which it will NOT allow any user to do a network search by IP IF the user does not have permission to use the command prompt this only took close to Google searches to find, no joke. After fixing the group permissions to enable the command prompt for all users for whom it had been disabled, the whole setup worked like a dream. Ubuntu Community Ask! Sign up to join this community.

Asked 8 years, 3 months ago. Active 8 years, 3 months ago. Viewed 24k times. Background: I am setting up a Linux box for a local accounting office. Requirements: No password authentication required for logged-in Windows users to access Samba share.
Each user that should have access to this share has a local on the nas box user account the details of which are used to map a drive using connect using different user. I've tried every combination that I can think of including:. Nothing seems to work, is there a special character combination for "No domain" in the same way that.
I have the same issue in my lab at home when domain machines try to access my nas my nas is not AD friendly either, and for my needs it didn't need to be so I never paid the extra for the business edition. To add this is not Win7 specific, it is anything above XP -XP worked because it had a sharing system known as Simple file sharing. Not the hostname of the local machine that is accessing the NAS box. But I guess my other question would be I believe the OP is saying he has tried that as he stated he tried the below, which basically would mean the NAS box name.
Would guess that these were lower end NAS solutions, so probably did not have any AD integration capabilities. Yep it's a bit of a cheap and not so cheerful solution unfortunately No domain capabilities as I think it's actually aimed at home users. I'm going to mark Rod's answer as best answer - when we do this with another account created on the NAS box this does work. By default, when the user enters a username on the Welcome Screen of a domain-joined machine, and there is also a local account with the same name, the domain account will take precedence.
After the computer is joined to the Active Directory domain, you can sign in under the domain or local user account. However, in newer versions of Windows, this drop-down menu no longer exists. Instead of this, a user is facing with a small button How to log on to another domain which appears near on the domain-joined computers Welcome Screen. If you click this button, the following tip will appear:. Type domain namedomain user name to sign in to another domain.
Of course, if your computer name is quite long, the input can be a real challenge! You can also type the computer name followed by a backslash and the username, and it will do the same thing. This way you can logon to a local account on a domain-joined computer on all Windows versions. You can use the same trick when you need to use the local user credential to access the shared folder over the network using SMB protocol.
Can you sign in with a Microsoft account without an Internet connection? Of course! You only need to be connected to the Internet when you create a Microsoft account or switch to a local account. The default local Windows account name is Administrator. In modern versions of Windows, this account is disabled by default.
